HE position of women in national life has steadily expanded. 

The record of their lives and achievements becomes increas- 

ingly interesting and valuable. It is fully as important for the 
nation as for the women that their activities and accomplishments 
be adequately recognized and recorded. 


AMERICAN WOMEN, published biennially, is a permanent bio- 
graphical record of the outstanding women of America. Prior to the 
publication of Volume I, 1935-36, in June, 1935, a biographical 
dictionary devoted exclusively to women was not available. Thus 
this work gives information not found elsewhere. AMERICAN 
WomMkEN has established itself and is recognized by libraries, news- 
papers, organizations, and the women themselves as the authentic 
and official Who’s Who for women. In the preparation of this edi- 
tion, we have tried diligently to produce a book that would continue 
to merit the confidence and prestige conferred on Volume I of 
AMERICAN WOMEN. 


To be of lasting value any reference book must be revised to 
accord with the change and growth of its subjects. This edition, 
Volume II, records the changes, development, and successes in the 
lives of the women included in Volume I, and, in addition, contains 
hundreds of new biographies not heretofore listed. This makes the 
second edition entirely up-to-date and accurate, as well as more 
inclusive than the first one. 


Every effort has been made to include the leaders in all outstand- 
ing fields of endeavor including education, the arts, professions, 
- science, club work, business, and government service. To get these 
names, we have asked the cooperation of officers of national soror- 
ities, alumnae secretaries of colleges and universities, officials of 
national women’s organizations, and prominent citizens who are 
leaders in the various fields. We wish to acknowledge our indebted- 
ness to all those who recommended names to us. We also wish to 
thank the women whose biographies appear for sending us the 
necessary information. The names of some distinguished women 
who should receive recognition on these pages may have been un- 
intentionally omitted, or the women may have neglected to reply to 
our request for information. The 7851 biographies included were 
selected from more than 22,000 recommended names. We invite the 
recommendation of eligible women for subsequent editions. Selec- 


VI AMERICAN WOMEN 


tion is based, of course, entirely on merit. It is impossible for any- 
one to purchase a listing in AMERICAN WOMEN and no one is under 
any obligation to buy a book. 

The sketches of the women included are concise but inclusive, 
giving such information as date and place of birth, parentage, educa- 
tion, marriage, children, occupation, politics, religion, memberships, 
outstanding achievements, and address. In addition to the biographies 
the book contains other interesting data. Eight prominent women, 
representatives of various fields of endeavor, have contributed fore- 
words. These inspiring messages pay deserved tribute to the progress 
of woman. The statistical summary is informative and interesting. 
A study of these statistics will reveal what the women of America 
think of education, marriage, religion, politics, hobbies, and sports. 
The table showing “age distribution” is also most interesting. The 
geographical index, which lists the names and occupation by states 
and cities, proved thoroughly useful and has been included in the 
present volume, as has the organization appendix, which gives the 
officers, purpose, and other information concerning most of the lead- 
ing women’s and allied groups. As an added feature Volume II has 
an occupational index. This is, to the best of our knowledge, the 
first time there has ever been any listing of women according to 
their professions. We believe this will prove to be a valuable refer- 
ence; it will give those interested in occupational trends an oppor- 
tunity to study what women are doing. In a further attempt to make 
AMERICAN WOMEN a ready reference, 535 names have been cross- 
indexed. 


The important place of AMERICAN WOMEN in the reference field 
has proved three-fold. First, it has offered a permanent biographical 
record with numerous uses for those seeking information for prac- 
tical purposes. Second, it has given deserved national recognition to 
thousands of successful women. Third, the continued biennial pub- 
lication will make it possible to record throughout time an accurate 
history of the Women of America.

AMERICAN WOMEN XI 


this morning, hearing the cardinal singing beneath my win- 
dow, my ears filled with its song and the gay shout of a mock- 
ing bird, I give thanks to God who never tires of creating breath- 
taking beauty every spring; of shocking us with Earth’s loveliness. 

If God can so endlessly re-create beauty, faith, hope, and life, we 
must not fail Him in following His example. When winters and 
darkness chill our hopes, we must go valiantly on. 

It is woman's task to fan the flames that neglect would let die; 
to heal the forgotten ill; to educate the underprivileged; to exert 
the love and tenderness God gave us for the benefit of all people, 
rather than only for members of her family. 

The modern woman’s work is to include the whole of the world 
as her home, regarding it with care and devotion. I cannot but feel 
that hardness, cynicism, and bitterness have failed to accomplish 
anything worthwhile, and that a true faith and spiritual regard for 
all our problems will bring about a better world in which to live; 
a wotld which we may bequeath to our children’s children with 
greater satisfaction to them and to us, despite our often tired hands 
and hearts, as we toil to create the good we cannot live to see.

fitting to call attention to the fact that women have had much 
to do with books in this country. 

Many of our books have been written by women, and the women 
who are devoting themselves to writing are rapidly increasing in 
numbers. So also are those engaged in the sale of books, and a large 
percentage of the more attractive bookshops are owned or managed 
by women. As librarians, women are greatly in the majority—in 
great contrast to other countries. Books are essential tools for all 
who are doing any kind of educational work. 

The major part that books must play in the cultural life and de- 
velopment of the nation has been appreciated and reflected in the 
programs and activities of our clubs and other organizations. Many 
a library throughout the country owes its very existence to the initial 
efforts of the women of the community who said, “We must have 
a library,” and set about finding ways and means for its establishment. 

It may be pointed out that here is one of the most worthy and 
important fields calling for our further endeavor. A third of the 
population of these United States are still entirely without access 
to libraries and with little good literature of any kind. How can 
these, our fellow countrymen and their growing children, be or be- 
come intelligent citizens, able to cope with the increasing problems 
and complexities of our modern world, without the aid of books? 
Books should and can be made available to all, and every woman 
can ‘do her bit” toward getting libraries where they are needed, and 
in the further development everywhere of these, our storehouses 
of information and knowledge. Here is more work for women.

OMEN today are accepting their share in helping to secure 

\ N / opportunities for everyone. They realize that we all need 

work that we can do and enjoy; and leisure, that supple- 
ments all work, rests us and makes us ready and glad to go on. 

We need for all this a philosophy of life and certain technics of 
living. These include physical adequacy, mental alertness, emotional 
stability, and social adjustment. 

We need also experience in group activity so that we can help 
contribute to family life and to the larger social groups. If we can 
_ develop happy, effective women who can follow real leadership and 
assume leadership, we should be able to make a real and a cumula- 
tive contribution.

a two-fold meaning—the oldest and the youngest group of 
women, on this continent at least. 

The women who came to these North American shores in the 
early history of our country took their place with the strong, virile, 
adventurous men who held the determination to make this a land 
of the free and the brave. We find these pioneer women conscientious 
in establishing new homes, maintaining the sacred relationship of 
home ties, and guiding the spiritual life of the family group down 
through the years. Women were early among the teachers of arts 
and letters; today we find them in practically every walk of life 
and taking seriously their citizenship responsibilities. 

When the women from many other lands came to American 
shores, they found an American woman already here—the Amerind, 
as J. W. Powell has called the American Indian. 

In many tribes, although these women were unlettered and labeled 
as “savage,” they had a keen perception of the sacredness of home 
life. The women were modesty personified, and the program for 
protection of the Indian girl growing into womanhood could well 
be copied even today. We find in many of these Indian tribes women 
sitting in the council chambers; some even served as head chiefs. 
A very notable instance of a woman ruler was the Queen of Pamen- 
key. We are told, “She came to one of the councils of the Virginia 
Burgesses in the time of Berkeley and was the recipient of much 
attention.’’ And then we have the beautiful story of Pocahontas which 
reminds us of the more modern Pocahontas of the Creeks and Chicka- 
saws, Milly Francis, who was the first American woman to be voted 
a medal by the Congress of the United States for saving a human 
life. We further find that many times among these aboriginal people 
the family inheritance came through the maternal side, not only the 
property but the clan or totem inheritance as well. 

A study of the blending of all these feminine characteristics, those 
brought to and those found in our America, perhaps gives an in- 
sight into the unusual strength of character and the unresting energy 
portrayed in the biographies of present-day American women.

Te nomenclature, American woman, carries with it perhaps 


AMERICAN WOMEN XV 


that the women of this country are developing an emotional 

maturity that enables them to adjust their lives to economic 
and political orders widely different from anything they have known 
heretofore. More and more they are exchanging a too-personal and 
emotional outlook for one marked by justice, tolerance, and that 
clear, unbiased vision that will make it possible for them to function 
more effectively as leaders in civic life. They are learning that emo- 
tional reaction must be replaced by reasoned understanding if they 
are not to waste their opportunity to influence the nation in the 
direction of individual responsibility and national peace. 

What part the next generations of women will take in the life of 
the nation—whether, as has happened in Europe, they will find 
themselves the victims of a crushing political order in which they 
have little or no voice, or whether they will be able to extend their 
influence in national affairs—depends to a considerable extent on 
the women of today, on responsible and informed parents aware of 
the importance of a right example; for now that life has become so 
complex and so definitely affected by national and international 
forces, youth is faced with the need of training for civic responsibility 
at an earlier age than ever before. 

Not only in these uncertain times, but probably until the millen- 
nium, it will be woman’s particular province to be concerned with 
securing a more stable and a happier life for her home and children.

XVI AMERICAN WOMEN 


E KNOW that manners change, much as fashions do, but 

: N / standards of taste are immutable. We always come back 

to them. At times we seem to lose our perceptions, we 
vulgarize our lives, and yet there is something vitally tenacious about 
the quality of excellence. The vulgar and the shoddy come and go, 
but the foundations of courtesy and of the code of taste will be 
found standing serenely when the orgies of destruction—whatever 
form they may take—have passed by. 

No matter what the new fashions or the new deals may be, whether 
we be rich or poor, whether we have leisure or none, we must still 
strive for the perfection of our own ideals, we must still adapt our- 
selves so as to live in harmony with society as a whole. It doesn’t 
matter very much whether we do our houses in white and dress our- 
selves in black or whether, in an effort to be cheerful, we dress our 
houses and ourselves in circus colors; it doesn’t matter in the long 
tun whether we say “Hello, Mary, come to dinner tomorrow” or 
whether we go back to the sending by hand of notes reading “Mrs. 
Oldtime presents her compliments to Mrs. Neighbor and requests 
the favor of her company at dinner.” That this would be a step 
upward is doubtful. Mrs. Neighbor would not be a whit more 
honored by Mrs. Oldtime’s invitation than would Mary be by Jane’s. 

Whether in a few—or many—years from now we shall choose 
what we now choose, use the same forms of expression we now use, 
do things in the way we now do them, whether manners or fashions 
will ever influence history, or whether history will take the lead, 
does not matter. But exactions of taste, of ethics, and of a spiritual 


ideal must survive or civilization end.

as a participating citizen should, the problems of a young Re- 
public of France, visited the slightly older Republic of the 
United States of America. 

Lafayette had builded a bridge between the peoples of France and 
America that had grown politically into an important means of 
communication across which denizens of an ancient land travelled 
to a new one that they might find models, examples, and successful 
patterns in liberal government to report back to their troubled 
country, struggling out of monarchical and imperial molds. 

It is significant that de Tocqueville was deeply impressed with 
the part American women took in the life of their people. He found 
them rendering individual and group service to family and to com- 
munity quite unlike that of any generation of which history had 
enlightened him. He found American woman possessed of a high 
intelligence which greatly surprised him in a pioneer stock unpol- 
ished by European contacts. He described her eager interest in the 
success and happiness of her country and countrymen that turned 
her mind from herself and from seeking satisfaction in fashion and 
frivolity that was the tradition of women in older lands. He stood 
amazed at her industry and inventiveness that created comfort, 
health, and larger satisfaction in those surroundings marked often 
by deprivation, insecurity, and changes brought about by the west- 
ward-moving frontier. 

Surely the challenge which was met so gallantly by the American 
women of the 1830's remains her challenge in the 1930's. This vol- 
ume of modern biographies proves that her intelligence, her eager- 
ness, her industry, her inventiveness, and her loyalty to family and 
to country still give idealistic vision to her alert mind and still busy 


her skillful hand.

OMEN in industry are now a commonplace. Their exact 

\ N / position has been gradually clarified in the years since 

the war. In general, women in industry are not trying to 
be masculine or to duplicate a man’s work. They are simply creating 
and working as women, giving a feminine slant, feminine advice, 
and feminine reactions to industrial and merchandising problems 
that can never be either men’s or women’s problems, but theirs jointly. 

In the fashion business, for instance, as fashion counselors, direc- 
tors, promoters, and publicists, women are filling a long-felt need, 
and their astonishing success in this field verifies this statement. 

America has produced some very fine creators of fashion in mil- 
linery, shoes, gloves, bags, and jewelry as well as in men’s and 
women’s wearing apparel. Most of these designers and originators 
are women. A large percentage of the manufacturers of wearing 
apparel, of fashion executives in department stores, in fabric houses, 
in advertising and publicity agencies are women. 

These women understand the fundamentals of fashion. They bring 
taste, a good educational background, art training and appreciation, 
and the advantages of travel to their vocations. 

Like other applied arts, the art of beautiful dressing, adds gracious- 
ness and charm to daily living. Women have always been interested 
in it. It is part of their being. But like other arts, for the best results 
it requires a technique—a study and knowledge of the best means 
of achieving results. And that 1s what American women have been 
learning. Whether their careers are in industry or in the home, 
whether they live in urban centers or small country towns, women 
have eagerly studied fashion. 

Beauty, good taste, good values, and refinement in dressing have 
been the desired aim; and if the next twenty years show the progress 
in our country that the past has done, the art of dressing will become 
a matter of course. 

Today the American woman, by and large, is the best-dressed 
woman in the world.

AMERICAN WOMEN °° LXXxXI 


BCC UPA TG News TN DEX 


To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time any attempt has been made to list prominent women 
according to their professions. This interesting index depicts accurately the occupational trends among 
outstanding women of America. It should be of value to those interested in vocational guidance as well 
as to business and professional executives who seek the names of leaders in their respective fields. 

Many prominent clubwomen and civic leaders who do not have, in the strict sense, an “occupation,” 
were not included in this index. Every effort was made to list each person under the proper classification. 
In some cases this was extremely difficult. Any unavoidable errors will be corrected for Volume Three. 


In order to make the listing more complete, some names are included in more than one classification.
